THE CASE OF HE NORRIS AND ESSEX.

A QUESTION OF PRINCIPLE, NOT DOLLARs-sOME
APPOINTMENTS EXPECTED.
TRENTON, N. j., March 13-The bill to repeal the
act granting o char er to the Morris and Essex Rail-
road Company will come up in the Senate this week.
and the ul effect OF the opposition which has been
aroused by the decline In the stock will then be fell
The bill will probably pass notwithstanding, and the
temper OF the Senate is apparently more lenient
than thato the House. 1t is said thai many believe
that the million and quarter due from the company
to the State tor back taxes according to the State
assessors report the OF the repeater IL has
nothing to do with 1T. The why the bill il
pressed is that II Is necessary 10 what has been
accomplished in the way OF making taxation equal
during the last tour years The Moins and Essex has
corporations do not POSSESS, and 1t hes TO be
question whether the tax law shall be enforced or
whether the Morris and Essex shall be suffered TO
override it, knocking down Its barriers ID the passag
Nothing unreasonable has been required OF the com
pany ana nothing more than other corporations have
yielded with more or less willingness.
1t is the belief and hope OF those who have been in
teresed ia the Morris and Essex ctse tn 40 the Lacka
Morris and Essex stockholders by ceasng ITS warfare
upon the State and accepting the just provisions OF
the reform tax act OF 1884 1t is also believed that
had President Sloan been more fortunate in his New
Jersey advisers tue difficulty would have been rem
edied before this AMI the almost endless and costly
litigation prevented.
The Legislature will meet tomorrow evening with
tte hope that Governor Green will redeem the duness
OF the last few days by giving the senate several
p0rtant nominations to consider VIII he IeaDpont
Chancellor RuuyoD and Supreme Court Justice De-
puef is the question most frequently asked The
Chancellor is opposed by a few Democratic politicians
because, although Democrat he has appointed Re
publicans to office occasionally. Judge Depue is OPP
posed because he is a Republican. The learning,
ability and high int gritty Of both are household
words and Governor Green will be judged by the re-
suit OF the opposing influences

To the Editor OF The Trfbahe.
SIR: Since my arrival here from the Phoenix mine,
Arizona hours ago, several gentlemen have called
on me for information In regard to the mine and have
urged me 10 give THE tribune my opinion OF the prop
erty in MS few words as possible. left the mine on sat
urday the 5tn inst | had examined 1t previously In
company with Professor George W. Maynard. and have
been In California since that time getting estimates ON
machinery for the mne etc. on my way East was
instructed to stop at the mine 70 examine
the developments made the north end OF tue NINE at
when point Professor Maynard aud had advised super
intandent Todd to put OF at work Upon this
suggestion he acted promptly and in opinion the re-
suits proved greater value TO the mine than even inc
shipman tunnel while both together demonstrate beyond
cay that the Phoenix mine contains an amount OF pay
ing gold ore estimate accurately but safe TO as
sumo at 100000 TONS
Tha north cross cut which "a AS feet from
the shpman tunnel, shows twenty-sx feet o. ore,
from which NY average sample taken carefully assayea

taken at random from tho faces OF the workings ana
along the lead and hillside, and without exception got
cors running from two thirty cents 10 the pan'
and some higher. The practical gold miner
will know that this means fine milling orc
running from ten dollars per ton upward Ia
opinion TINS Is tue tIuC way W beHs t''' '.N'
when A mill Is not available. My assays have been va
